Button Bush

Button Bush at the beach. Cephalanthus occidentalis L., Common buttonbush, Buttonbush, Button willow, is a shrub whose flowers are distinctive, dense, spherical clusters (heads) with a fringe of pistils protruded beyond the white corollas. Buttonbush is a handsome ornamental suited to wet soils and is also a honey plant. This distant relative of coffee (family Rubiaceae) grows in wetland areas. Ducks and other water birds and shorebirds consume the seeds.
